Mainly because the conservatives don't give a shit for reaching across the aisle, as far as I can see, and immediately take the hardest possible opposite stance to whatever the current liberal agenda is perceived as being. No one gets worked up about about moderates in general though, so being at an extreme is the only way for either side to get air time and mindshare. And I think it's probably time for another of my periodic breaks from this forum, because I'm getting too pessimistic and snappish about it again.
